A useful bit of info if you need to do some serious market research – you can access
Mintel reports for free at
Westminster Reference Library. It’s one of the few publicly accessible libraries that Mintel grants up-to-date access to its information to. Very handy for anyone who wants to save the hundreds that its reports cost.While you’re in the area, the
British Library Business and IP Centre offers some pretty great resources too. It's got market research reports, journals, directories, industry guides and trade literature. Take along two forms of ID (one proving signature and one your home address) to get a reader pass – see the
website for more details.If you’d rather work online, check out its
online business information and
intellectual property databases.Thanks to our friend entrepreneur Joey Baxter for the great tip!(Image:
